GRAPES ARE EASY TO GROW 

 AND LAST FOR YEARS 



Grape vines may be planted in early Spring 

 or in the Fall in November and December. 

 Grapes should be set in a well-drained soil 

 that would produce garden crops. 



Vines are usually planted S to 10 feet ai)art 

 in the home garden and where a vineyard is 

 planned the rows should be 10 feet apart with 

 vines 4 to "> feet apart in the row. Grapes 

 may be trained along a garden fence or a 

 regular arbor may be constructed to suit the 

 desired arrangement in the garden. 



A simple method of support is followed by 

 connnercial growers. Wires are strung from 

 liosts with top wire 5 feet above the ground 

 and the lower wire 2V2 feet above the ground. 



Pruning is one of the most important fac- 

 tors in obtaining marvelous grape harvests. 

 Our Better Berries Bulletin No. 8 completely 

 outlines most popular pruning methods : other 

 information is given in Bulletin No. 14.
